In recent years, many small and medium-sized logistics companies in the logistics industry to flourish against the backdrop of rapidly growing, many companies have developed into a local leading enterprises with a certain scale. However, with the company's size has grown in strength and corporate profits did not run as the expansion and upgrade, on the contrary as a result of increasing competition in the oil price increases, the total cost of the logistics industry to accelerate growth, more and more problems began to plague enterprise managers. 
In the continuous development of enterprises, many small and medium-sized logistics enterprises began to dim awareness of logistics information on future business development, logistics, information technology logistics industry as a new trend has been the logistics company's high degree of Concern. "Logistics" is what in the end, the realization of specific issues such as how to know little about, small and medium-sized logistics company information very difficult process.
Small and medium-sized logistics enterprises in information technology can not be optimistic about the status quo
It is understood that many national logistics enterprises, 95% for small and medium-sized enterprises, small and medium enterprises in recent years, although they won the rapid development of management tools, but still lag behind. Logistics business-to-information-based knowledge and understanding of the lack of information on the logistics of the building late start, advancing slowly, the overall low level of information technology, the information technology supply chain from a few of the objectives of the overall plan. Large enterprises and small businesses of logistics information gap between the increasing and even the logistics of the information gap. Small and medium-sized logistics enterprises in information technology can not be optimistic about the overall situation.
That information-based logistics companies currently status quo in the end be?
There are a set of data may be compared with the image of the international community in general logistics costs account for the proportion of GDP to measure a country's level of development of the logistics, the lower the proportion of the more advanced. Europe, the United States and other developed countries the ratio is about 10%; China's logistics and targets for the proportion of 18.3 percent, a large gap. All aspects of our logistics such as transportation, warehousing, distribution, as well as the cost of labor and equipment costs are much lower than developed countries and the whole process of integrated logistics costs are much higher than developed countries. One of the main reasons is that the logistics aspect of the low level of information, communication and information poor, resulting in large stocks, waste of capacity.
China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing experts pointed out that many small and medium-sized enterprises, logistics, logistics information technology in its infancy, although there are some success stories, but for our country's logistics business information technology, it is more clear understanding, Slow development. Some companies have not recognized the importance of logistics information, or even information on the logistics of what is still not clear; some enterprises have information on the logistics of building a certain understanding of the need, they are also looking for more information ; Some enterprises have to understand on the basis of a certain investment, but mostly because there is no suitable software and information systems, there was no input. The real success of the logistics information is not a lot of cases, small and medium-sized enterprises, especially logistics.
In the eyes of the logistics software providers, information-based SME market is easier said than done.
The largest logistics supply chain management software provider Brocade Shen, president of the Information and Culture said that all third-party logistics small and medium-sized enterprises to diversify the client, making its operating system's information technology needs of a flexible, personalized state. And the result is that most of the logistics software is not different logistics business to provide personalized program, the second high development costs, coupled with growing small and medium-sized logistics enterprises in the development of continuous change, once the business model change , The follow-up once again to change the development of higher costs. This is in the logistics software suppliers and small and medium-sized enterprises between the logistics of a contradiction: the existing logistics system, the high cost of information technology, features and rigid requirements in order to use limited funds, demand for personalized inconsistent. Such inconsistencies in information technology, logistics to large-scale systems and low demand among small and medium enterprises, and form a serious dislocation. At present, small and medium-sized logistics enterprises are faced with the plight of the blind spot of information.
On the other hand, the standardization of information on the logistics industry is also serious deficiencies. Long lead logistics management industry standardization of contradiction, between the departments, regions and enterprises of information between the format is not uniform, not a unified interface, but also hindered the information-based logistics market.
